CARNEY  CEMENT  COMPANY 
Mankato  Minnesota 


A section  of  the  huge  quarries  near  Mankato,  Minnesota  supplying  the 
stone  for  making  Carney.  It  is  the  only  deposit  of  this  peculiar  rock  that 
has  ever  been  found.  Lime  has  been  chemically  combined  in  this  stone 
to  make,  when  burned  and  ground,  a smooth  working,  slower  setting  mortar 
that  requires  no  limejn  mixing.  No  foreign  materials  of  any  kind  are  add- 
ed to  or  taken  from  the  natural  stone  during  the  manufacture  of  Carney.

Carney— the  Cement  Nature  Mixed 


n nor  SANDS  of  years  ago  nature 
deposited  a cement  rock  that  was  des- 
tined to  revolutionize  the  mortar  work  in 
present  day  construction  of  tile  and  brick 
buildings. 

This  particular  deposit  of  stone,  found  at 
Mankato,  Minnesota,  is  entirely  different 
from  any  other  deposit  found  in  America. 
Its  difference  lies  in  the  fact  that  the  stone 
contains  just  the  right  amount  of  lime  to 
make,  when  burned  and  ground,  and  when 
the  proper  proportions  of  water  and  sand 
are  added,  a plastic,  smooth-working,  slower 
setting  mortar  for  brick  and  tile  laying. 

In  this  stone  nature  combined  chemically, 
in  just  the  right  proportion,  enough  lime 
so  that  when  three  parts  of  sand  are  added 
to  one  part  of  Carney  and  mixed  with 
water,  the  result  is  a perfect  mortar  for 
brick  or  tile  construction.  Carney  is  not 
new.  It  has  been  used  for  years  and  has 
heretofore  been  sold  under  the  name  Car- 
ney’s Cement.  Owing  to  its  many  superior 
advantages  and  differences  from  ordinary 
cements  its  name  has  been  changed  to 
Carney,  as  it  is  in  a class  by  itself.  Carney 
in  no  way  resembles  other  cements.  Its 
composition  and  mixing  characteristics,  as 
well  as  its  perfect  properties  in  the  finished 
wall,  make  it  far  superior  to  anything  else 
for  making  brick  and  tile  mortar. 

In  the  process  of  mixing  Carney  nothing 
need  be  added  to  obtain  a perfect  mortar 
except  water  and  sand  in  the  proper  pro- 
portion. No  waxes,  oils,  lime,  gypsum  or 
any  other  foreign  materials  are  necessary, 
nor  are  any  added  during  or  after  the 


process  of  manufacture  by  the  makers. 
Because  of  its  slower  setting  properties 
Carney  mortar  adheres  more  closely  to  the 
brick  or  tile  and  makes  a stronger  union. 
This  slower  setting  property  makes  the 
mortar  more  plastic  and  easier  to  work  with. 
Soaking  increases  the  amount  of  putty  50% 
and  improves  the  quality  of  the  mortar, 
thereby  lowering  the  cost  of  Carney.  This 
peculiar  quality  permits  the  mason  to  lay 
more  bricks  to  the  barrel  of  Carney  than  is 
possible  with  other  mortars.  It  is  not 
unusual  to  lay  at  least  1,000  brick  to  a barrel 
of  Carney. 

Carney  is  the  only  cement  which  can  be 
allowed  to  stand  over  night  to  be  used  next 
morning  by  simply  retempering  with  water. 
This  feature  eliminates  all  waste.  Ex- 
perience in  using  ordinary  cement-lime 
mortars  proves  that  Carney  eliminates  many 
of  the  mistakes  due  to  complex  mixing  for- 
mulas, thereby  saving  much  trouble  and 
work  at  the  mortar  box. 

Carney  is  of  such  quality  that  it  can  he 
used  the  year  around. 

Carney  has  been  used  in  the  walls  of 
thousands  of  America’s  finest  buildings, 
over  a period  of  many  years,  which  proves 
beyond  a doubt  that  Carney  mortar  stands 
the  test  of  time.  It  grips  the  bricks  in 
these  walls  like  a steel  vise,  becoming 
harder  than  the  bricks  themselves,  thereby 
making  a solid  wall  of  masonry  of  uniform 
quality  from  foundation  to  roof.  Any 
architect  or  contractor  who  has  had  experi- 
ence with  Carney  will  tell  you  that  it  has 
revolutionized  tile  and  brick  construction.

One  Part  Carney 
Three  Parts  Sand — No  Lime 


WHEN  you  give  consideration  to  this 
simple  specification  of  one  part  Car- 
ney. three  parts  sand — no  lime,  used  accord- 
ing to  manufacturer's  directions,  you  begin 
to  realize  the  wonderful  possibility  of  sav- 
ing in  time,  labor  and  trouble  where  Car- 
ney is  used. 

It  w ill  1 )e  immediately  noted  that  the 
Carney  specification  does  not  call  for  the 
use  of  lime.  Therefore,  the  initial  cost  of 
lime  ordinarily  used  in  common  low-grade 
mortar  is  saved,  as  well  as  the  labor  cost 
of  slaking  and  mixing. 

Every  architect  and  contractor  knows 
that  delays  and  losses  often  occur  due  to 
errors  when  the  ordinary  cement-lime  mor- 
tars are  mixed  according  to  their  complicated 


formulas.  AVhere  Carney  mortar  is  used  no 
mortar  mixing  mistakes  can  occur.  This 
elimination  of  error  is  due  to  the  Carney 
specification: 

1 part  Carney — 3 parts  sand — No  lime. 

If  this  formula  is  not  followed  closely  by 
the  mortar  mixer,  the  brick  or  tile  mason 
will  be  prompt  to  tell  the  brick  foreman  on 
the  job  that  he  cannot  work  the  mortar. 
The  addition  of  too  much  or  too  little  sand 
interferes  with  the  easy,  plastic,  smooth 
working  properties  of  the  properly  prepared 
mortar.  This  acts  as  a constant  check  upon 
improper  mixing,  adulteration  or  careless- 
ness at  the  mortar  box.  There  is  no  mortar 
so  simple  and  easy  to  mix  as  Carney  mortar.

Directions  for  using 
Carney 

For  Brick,  Tile  and  Terra  Cotta  Walls 
above  grade  in  warm  weather.  Put  suffi- 
cient neat  cement  in  the  soaking  box  to  be 
tive  or  six  inches  deep  when  leveled  off. 
Cover  with  water,  using  about  twice  as 
much  water  as  cement  by  volume.  Thor- 
oughly stir  with  hoe  and  allow  to  stand 
until  surplus  water  is  absorbed.  This  will 
require  about  three  hours,  though  this  time 
can  be  considerably  shortened  by  addition- 
al stirring  of  the  cement  and  water  an  hour 
or  so  after  mixing.  The  putty  is  now  ready 
to  be  mixed  with  sand  for  use.  (Many 
masons  prefer  to  put  water  in  mixing  box 
before  the  cement.)  The  soaking  and  stir- 
ring of  Carney  increases  its  volume  upwards 
about  50%.  The  putty  can  stand  in  the 
box  for  hours,  even  over  night,  without 
harming  the  quality  of  the  mortar.  There 
is  no  waste  to  Carney  mortar. 

Machine  Mix — Throw  into  the  mixer 
one  shovel  of  Carney  putty,  as  prepared 
above,  to  every  three  shovels  of  sharp,  clean, 
screened  sand,  adding  enough  water  to  pro- 
duce a mortar  of  the  proper  consistency  for 
laying  brick.  Run  the  mortar  from  the 
mixer  into  a box,  and  it  is  ready  for  use. 

Hand  M ix — Use  two  boxes,  one  for  soak- 
ing the  neat  cement  as  outlined,  the  other  to 
mix  the  mortar  in,  using  proportions  of  one 
part  Carney  putty  to  three  parts  sharp, 
clean,  screened  sand.  Each  box  can  be  par- 
titioned into  two  parts,  so  that  neat  cement 
can  be  soaking  in  one  end  of  the  soaking  box 
while  it  is  being  used  from  the  other,  so  that 
mortar  can  be  prepared  in  one  end  of  the 
mixing  box  while  being  used  from  the  other. 

There  is  considerable  economy  in  using 
clean,  sharp  sand,  as  the  cement  will  go 
much  further  in  the  work. 


Cold  Weather  Conditions — Heat  the  sand  and 
water.  Use  equal  parts  of  neat  cement  and  water 
by  volume  and  thoroughly  stir.  Do  not  allow  the 
cement  to  soak  longer  than  an  hour  or  an  hour  and 
a half  in  cold  weather  before  adding  the  sand.  Mix 
in  proportion  of  one  part  Carney  to  three  parts 
sand  and  use  directly  after  mixing. 

For  Non-Porous  and  Hard  Shale  Brick  in 
Cold  Weather — For  every  barrel  of  Carney  use 
one  bag  of  Portland  cement  when  adding  the  sand. 
This  small  addition  of  Portland  cement  quickens 
the  set  of  the  mortar,  which  is  necessary  when  lay- 
ing impervious  brick  in  cold  weather.

Like  Structural  Steel  in  the  Wall 


FOR  thousands  of  years  designers  and 
contractors  of  world  s buildings  have 
had  more  trouble  with  the  mortar  or 
bond  than  they  have  had  with  tile  or  brick 
from  which  structures  were  built.  Any 
architect  or  contractor  knows  that  he  is 
never  sure  what  the  results  from  ordinary 
mortar  are  going  to  be.  Regardless  of  how 
careful  the  mortar  mixing  is  watched, 
carelessness  and  adulterations  often  creep 
into  the  mortar  work. 

Many  experiences  with  finished  walls 
have  been  very  unfortunate.  Mortar  has 
disintegrated  with  time  and  has  blown 
away.  Poor  mortar  is  due  to  a variety  of 
causes  but  chiefly  to  the  difficulty  of  getting 
the  proper  mixture.  Therefore  thousands 
of  architects  and  contractors  have  been 


using  Carney  with  a feeling  of  satisfaction 
and  security  that  has  never  been  known 
before  in  the  construction  of  buildings. 

Examine  any  finished  wall  built  with 
Carney  and  you  will  find  the  cement  has 
returned  to  its  native  hardness  and  has 
become  harder  than  the  brick  or  tile  it  binds. 

Buildings  laid  up  in  Carney  are  often 
likened  to  buildings  erected  of  structural 
steel.  Carney  is  to  the  wall  what  the  steel 
is  to  the  building.  In  the  wall  it  is  strong 
and  durable  like  structural  steel.  It  forms  a 
network  of  masonry  that  makes  the  strong- 
est possible  wall  -a  wall  capable  of  bearing 
w eight.

er  than  the  brick  it  binds  but  it  develops 
a vise-like  gripping  power.  This  unusual 
hardness  and  gripping  power  is  achieved 
through  the  slower  setting  of  Carney  mor- 
tar. The  mortar  is  absorbed  into  the  brick 
and  thus  makes  a “bond  that  guarantees 
the  wall". 

In  your  examination  you  will  find  that 
the  wall  laid  in  Carney  has  become  a solid 
wall  of  masonry  from  the  foundation  to  the 
roof.  The  durability  of  a Carney  laid  wall 
is  best  described  by  a letter  recently 
received  from  a contractor  who  uses  Carney. 
In  part,  the  letter  read  as  follows:  “We 
recently  had  occasion  to  tear  down  a part 
of  a wall  we  laid  in  Carney  in  order  to  make 
certain  changes.  The  mortar  had  become 
so  hard  and  held  the  bricks  so  strongly 
that  it  was  necessary  to  drill  the  bricks  in 
order  to  alter  the  wall.  This  certainly 
proved  to  our  satisfaction  that  there  is  no 
mortar  that  can  compare  in  gripping  power 
to  Carney-made  mortar." 

On  account  of  its  natural  hardness  after 
setting  and  its  peculiar  gripping  qualities 
Carney  is  particularly  adaptable  for  wall 
bearing  buildings.  The  hardness  of  Carney 
Mortar  makes  such  a uniformly  strong  wall 
that  it  is  capable  of  bearing  almost  any 
load  that  it  may  be  subjected  to. 

It  is  a well  known  fact  that  the  intense 
heat  of  big  fires  does  not  harm  the  quality 
of  Carney  mortar  in  the  least.  This  fact 
is  based  on  several  cases  where  fire  com- 
pletely gutted  buildings  laid  up  with  Carney 
Mortar.  In  these  cases  the  walls  were  still 
standing  intact  when  everything  else  was 
destroyed.  It  is  this  permanence  in  the 
finished  wall  that  appeals  to  architects  and 
contractors  alike.  They  know  that  the  wall

will  be  exactly  as  planned.  They  know  that 
by  using  Carney  the  mortar  in  the  wall  will 
be  free  from  adulterations  and  carelessness. 
Carney  guarantees  supreme  strength  and 
durability  in  the  wall.

Carney  Makes  Mortar  Work  Easy 


EVERY  contractor  who  uses  Carney 
Mortar  knows  that  the  work  of 
building  is  made  easier  from  the 
mixing  at  the  mortar  box  to  the  final  laying 
of  the  brick  or  tile.  Carney  is  handled 
more  easily  than  ordinary  cements  on 
account  of  its  light  weight — the  weight 
being  only  60  pounds  to  the  sack,  or  240 
pounds  to  the  barrel  of  4 cubic  feet.  As  no 
lime  is  required  for  mixing  Carney  the  user 
is  spared  the  expense  and  bother  of  buying 
and  handling  lime.  Thus  all  the  usual 
troubles  which  accompany  the  use  of  lime, 
such  as  deterioration,  slaking  and  mixing, 
together  with  the  attendant  expense  and 
loss,  are  avoided. 

Any  laborer  can  mix  Carney  Mortar  with- 
out supervision  because  of  the  simple  for- 
mula— 1 part  Carney — 3 parts  sand — no 


lime — and  because  of  the  fact  that  the 
mason  on  the  wall  will  discover  any  change 
in  this  formula  instantly  when  he  tries  to 
use  improperly  mixed  Carney  mortar.  This 
simple  process  of  mixing  results  in  a saving 
of  40%  of  labor  usually  required  to  make 
cement-lime  mortar. 

The  using  of  Carney  results  in  a saving 
of  time.  Mortar  mixers  on  a job  where 
Carney  is  used  may  begin  work  one  half 
hour  before  the  brick  layers  and  still  have 
plenty  of  time  to  prepare  a supply  of  mortar 
before  the  layers  are  ready. 

Carney  mortar  is  so  easy  to  mix  that 
fewer  men  are  required  at  the  mortar  box 
than  when  low  grade  mortar  is  used.  The 
mason  works  under  entirely  different  con- 
ditions on  the  wall  where  Carney  mortar  is 
used.  Because  Carney  is  so  much  more

plastic,  smooth  working  and  slower  setting 
the  mason  can  work  with  less  effort.  He 
doesn’t  have  to  tap  down  or  knock  down 
the  brick  with  his  trowel  as  lie  has  to  do 
with  ordinary  cements.  Nor  does  he  ever 
have  to  rip  up  a brick  and  spread  new  mor- 
tar. The  slower  set  and  greater  smoothness 
make  it  unnecessary  for  him  to  jiggle  the 
brick.  This  is  why  walls  laid  up  in  Carney 
do  not  have  wavy  horizontal  rows. 

Any  mason  can  lay  more  brick  per  day 
with  Carney  mortar.  Using  Carney  a mason 
can  set  up  four  or  five  bricks  in  the  time  it 
would  take  to  set  up  two  in  Portland. 

These  advantages  to  the  mason  cannot  be 
secured  with  a quick  setting  cement. 

Where  Carney  is  used  contractors  find 
that  there  is  no  waste  mortar  because  the 
Carney  Mortar  left  over  can  be  used  the 
following  day  by  simply  retempering  with 
water.  Therefore  the  mixer  doesn’t  have 
to  use  his  judgment  as  to  the  amount  of 
mortar  that  will  probably  be  used  in  the 
last  few  hours  of  the  day.  All  difficulty 
with  hold-over  mortar  is  eliminated  by  the 
use  of  Carney.  Even  if  the  mortar  box  is 
found  to  be  half  full  at  the  time  the  whistle 
blows,  it  is  unnecessary  to  clean  it  out  for 
Carney  can  be  mixed  and  held  over  night 
without  loss  or  deterioration.  Often-times 
a portion  of  a job  may  be  temporarily  de- 
layed or  stalled,  causing  a hold  up  in  masonry 
work  and  frequently  wasting  mortar.  With 
Carney  mortar,  a delay  will  not  result  in 
waste  because  the  mortar  can  be  retempered 
and  used.  No  other  cement  has  this  no- 
waste feature. 

The  mason  finds  a great  saving  of  time 
in  the  use  of  Carney  mortar  because  he

Carney  mortar  is  an  all  year  round 
mortar.  It  can  be  used  in  winter  as  well 
as  summer  with  equally  good  results.  Frost

the  wall.  Here  is  an  advantage  of  the  ut-

most  importance  to  contractors  and  archi- 
tects as  well  as  the  owners. 

Whether  hand  or  machine  mixing,  where 
Carney  is  used  mortar  mixing  is  made 
easier,  at  the  same  time  saving  you  a great 
deal  of  worry  and  bother.  It  also  makes 
work  easier  on  the  wall,  thereby  saving 
time  on  the  job  and  at  the  same  time  cutting 
the  amount  of  labor  cost.  The  contractor 
will  immediately  appreciate  how  much 
trouble,  worry  and  expense  can  be  saved 
as  well  as  the  number  of  mistakes  which 
may  be  avoided  by  the  use  of  Carney.  The 
contractor  who  doesn't  use  Carney  now, 
simply  never  has  used  it. 


This  ease  with  which  Carney  mortar  work 
can  be  accomplished  should  instantly  con- 
vince you,  if  you  are  a contractor,  that  it 
is  more  profitable  to  use  Carney  and  save 
mistakes,  trouble  and  worry  that  you  have 
experienced  in  the  use  of  ordinary  lime- 
cement  mortars. 

An  architect  who  specifies  Carney  can 
enjoy  a feeling  of  security  and  satisfaction 
through  knowing  that  the  building  will  be 
completed  exactly  as  he  planned  it,  and 
that  there  will  be  no  regrets  due  to  careless- 
ness and  mistakes  resulting  from  the  use  of 
poor  mortar. 


The  fact  that  Carney  requires  no  lime  in  mixing  is  a saving 
not  only  in  cost  of  materials  but  also  in  time  and  labor.

Carney  Economies 


The  users  of  Carney  meet  with  one 
economy  after  another,  from  the  time 
of  purchasing  to  the  final  laying  of  the  mor- 
tar in  the  wall.  It  is  beyond  contradiction 
the  most  economical  cement  found  on  the 
market  today. 

The  following  Carney  economies  summar- 
ize the  experience  of  the  contractors  and 
architects  responsible  for  many  of  the  finest 
buildings  in  America  that  have  been  laid 
up  in  Carney. 

The  original  cost  of  Carney  mortar  is  less 
than  that  of  cement-lime-mortar.  Since 
nature  added  sufficient  lime  to  the  rock 
from  which  Carney  is  made,  there  is  a sub- 
stantial saving  to  the  contractor  or  builder 
because  of  the  fact  that  lime  doesn't  have  to 
be  purchased  or  handled.  Then  too,  Carney 
can  be  safely  carried  on  hand  since  it  does 
not  deteriorate  in  stock. 

Carney  is  light  in  weight.  It  weighs 
only  60  pounds  to  the  sack  or  240  pounds 
to  the  barrel  of  4 cubic  feet.  Therefore  it 
is  easier  and  less  expensive  to  handle  than 
ordinary  cements.  Less  man  power  and 
less  trucking  facilities  are  required  to  handle 


and  transport  Carney,  but  the  biggest  saving 
is  accomplished  in  the  mixing,  owing  to  the 
simplified  formula  for  making  Carney  mor- 
tar— 1 part  Carney — 3 parts  sand- — no  lime. 
This  formula  cuts  the  cost  of  mortar  mixing 
40%  below  the  cost  of  mixing  cement-lime 
mortar.  The  mixing  work  is  done  much 
easier  and  faster,  therefore  less  labor  is 
required.  This  enables  the  mortar  mixers 
to  start  work  a half  hour  instead  of  an  hour 
ahead  of  the  brick  layers  in  the  morning 
and  still  have  the  mortar  ready  on  time. 

The  experience  of  Carney  users  differs 
slightly  as  to  the  exact  number  of  men 
required  at  the  mortar  box  to  supply  a 
given  number  of  men  on  the  wall.  This 
difference  varies  due  to  local  conditions  as 
well  as  to  whether  mixed  by  hand  or 
machine.  All  experiences,  however,  come 
within  the  following  figures: — One  man  mix- 
ing by  machine  can  supply  25  to  30  men  on 
the  wall,  and,  mixing  by  hand,  one  man  can 
provide  for  12  to  15  men. 

Two  men  mixing  by  machine,  can  supply 
as  high  as  60  men  on  the  wall.

Carney  possesses  one  remarkable  feature 
of  economy  possessed  by  no  other  cement 
and  that  is,  when  it  is  soaked  in  water  its 
volume  increases  from  a barrel  to  one  barrel 
and  a half.  When  water  is  added  to  a barrel 
of  neat  cement  and  it  is  allowed  to  stand 
a short  time  it  is  found  that  a barrel  and  a 
half  of  putty  results.  The  photograph  at 
the  top  of  page  13  shows  an  actual  soaking 
test  made  in  the  mortar  box  under  working 
conditions.  The  box  on  the  right  shows  an 
actual  increase  of  50%  in  volume  after 
soaking  three  hours.  This  increase  in  vol- 
ume is  a clear  saving.  There  is  no  first  cost 
on  it,  neither  is  there  any  freight,  cartage 
or  handling.  It  is  a 50%  dividend  free 
of  labor  and  expense.  Soaking  improves 
the  plastic,  smooth  working  qualities  of  Car- 
ney without  in  any  way  harming  the  result- 
ing mortar.  The  swelling  properties  of  Carney 


combined  with  the  better  working  qualities 
of  the  putty,  result  in  twro  direct  extra  profits 
to  the  contractor.  It  enables  the  man  on 
the  wrall  to  work  faster  and  it  results  in  the 
laying  of  approximately  1000  brick  to  a bar- 
rel. Carney  enables  men  to  work  faster  be- 
cause it  makes  a smoother  wrorking  mortar 
that  doesn’t  have  to  be  retempered.  There- 
fore they  can  lay  more  brick  per  man  per 
day  than  wThen  using  any  other  mortar. 
Naturally  the  job  is  speeded  up  and  this  re- 
sults in  a great  saving  in  building  cost.  The 
average  mason  working  w ith  Carney  can  set 
up  four  or  five  bricks  in  the  time  it  ordin- 
arily takes  to  set  up  twTo  in  Portland. 

Unless  the  contractor  has  used  Carney 
he  has  never  used  a cement  in  which  there 
is  no  w’aste.  Many  times  when  work  is  fin- 
ished in  the  evening  the  contractor  finds  a 


:C  ABNEY:

lot  of  left-over  mortar.  This  waste  and 
expense  is  eliminated  by  the  use  of  Carney. 

It  is  the  constant  endeavor  of  the  mortar 
mixer  who  makes  ordinary  mortar  to  judge 
accurately  the  amount  of  mortar  required 
during  the  last  few  hours  of  the  day,  while 
men  on  the  wall  must  speed  up  or  slow 
down  to  keep  pace  with  the  mortar  supply. 
Where  Carney  Mortar  is  used  this  problem 
of  speeding  up  or  slowing  down,  which 
results  in  great  waste,  is  eliminated,  because 
mortar  left  over  at  the  end  of  the  day  can 
be  just  as  readily  used  the  following  day 
by  simply  retempering  with  water. 

Along  this  line  a Cleveland  Ohio  Con- 
struction Company  writes,  “As  a mortar 
material  we  find  the  retempering  quality  of 
very  great  value  as  our  mortar  supply,  made 
up  the  day  previous,  is  always  ready  in  any 
quantity  required.  This  same  retempering 
quality  is  of  further  service,  as  the  small 
mortar  boards  on  the  floor  need  not  be  used 
up  each  day.  There  is  no  waste  to  take 
care  of,  thus  securing  a noticeable  economy.” 

Another  concern  writes,  “We  find  the  re- 
tempered material  gets  hard  in  the  same 
time  as  material  that  has  not  been  retemp- 
ered. We  find  that  by  soaking  the  cement 
ahead  and  using  the  putty  we  use  a less 
quantity  of  cement  per  thousand  brick.” 

In  using  Carney  costly  mistakes  are 
avoided  which  often  occur  through  adulter- 
ation at  the  mortar  box.  The  Carney 
formula  is  so  simple  that  any  laborer  can 
follow  it.  The  addition  of  too  much  or  too 
little  sand  immediately  results  in  complaints 
from  the  mason  on  the  wall.  This  eliminates 
constant  inspection  of  the  contents  of  the 
mortar  box.  The  masons  act  automatically 
as  inspectors  and  notify  the  foreman  when

the  quality  of  Carney  has  been  changed  by 
the  mixers  either  through  error  or  care- 
lessness. 

These  are  some  of  the  reasons  why 
architects  are  now  constantly  specifying 
Carney,  and  why  contractors  are  using  it 
instead  of  cement-lime  mortar  because  of 
its  economy,  because  it  is  trouble-proof 
and  fool-proof  and  because  with  it  they  can 
build  better  walls  at  lower  cost.

Lower  Masonry  Bids 


IT  IS  the  constant  endeavor  of  the 
conscientious  architect  to  have  his 
buildings  of  such  high  quality  that 
they  stand  as  monuments  to  his  good 
judgment  and  efficiency.  That  is  the 
reason  why  thousands  of  the  best  architects 
in  America  are  now  specifying  Carney. 
However,  these  same  architects  are  not 
unmindful  of  the  saving  in  building  costs 
accomplished  through  the  use  of  Carney. 
They  well  know  that  Carney  results  in 
great  saving  which  is  reflected  in  lower  bids. 
These  architects  have  a feeling  of  satisfac- 
tion in  knowing  the  finished  walls,  where 
Carney  is  used,  will  be  completed  exactly 
as  planned. 

For  these  same  reasons  the  posted  con- 
tractor is  always  anxious  to  use  Carney. 
He  well  knows  of  the  advantages  and 
economy  and  better  construction  which 
result  from  its  use.  He  also  knows  that  it 
helps  him  to  meet  the  keenest  competition 
through  lower  bids  and  that  when  the  job 
is  completed  he  has  made  another  satisfied 
customer. 

We  have  received  hundreds  of  letters 
from  architects  and  contractors  giving  their 
experiences  with  Carney.  One  contractor 
who  used  3,000,000  brick  and  3,000  barrels 
of  Carney  on  a certain  job  figured  that  he 
saved  $4,500  on  brick  work  alone.  Another 
contractor  writes:  "We  figure  at  least 
$1.50  saving  per  thousand  brick  by  using 
Carney  instead  of  lime  and  cement  mortar.” 

It  is  such  experiences  as  these,  resulting 
from  the  use  of  Carney,  that  insure  the 


complete  satisfaction  of  the  architect  and 
contractor  and  make  so  many  satisfied 
owners. 

If  you  as  an  architect  will  write  Carney 
in  the  specifications  for  your  next  job,  or 
if  you  are  a contractor,  when  you  prepare 
your  next  bid,  will  figure  on  using 
Carney,  you  can  make  a decided  saving  in 
the  building  cost  and  be  sure  of  obtaining 
satisfactory  results. 

W hether  you  are  an  architect  or  con- 
tractor it  will  pay  you  to  investigate  Carney 
and  learn  first  hand  the  decided  savings  you 
can  make  by  writing  in  Carney  in  your 
plans.  In  order  that  you  can  get  in  touch 
with  those  who  have  used  Carney  we  are 
giving  a list  on  the  next  page  of  a few  of 
the  buildings  where  Carney  has  been  used, 
together  with  the  names  of  the  contractors 
and  architects. 

Examine  this  list  and  see  if  any  of  these 
buildings  are  located  near  you.  If  not,  write 
us  and  we  will  lie  very  pleased  for  the 
opportunity  to  send  you  the  names  of 
buildings  near  you  laid  up  in  Carney,  to- 
gether with  the  names  and  addresses  of 
architects  who  planned  them  and  con- 
tractors who  handled  the  jobs,  and  you  will 
be  convinced  that  Carney  lowers  masonry 
bids. 

From  the  above  advantages  it  can  readily 
be  seen  that  the  architect  who  specifies  Car- 
ney in  his  plans  is  really  doing  the  contrac- 
tor a favor.  He  is  giving  the  contractor  the 
means  for  building  the  best  wall  possible  at 
a much  lower  cost.

Where  to  Get  Carney 


TITE  KNOW,  f rom  experience,  it  is  the 
V yconstant  endeavor  of  the  architect  to 
specify  those  materials  which  give 
best  results  at  the  lowest  possible  cost.  We 
know  that  it  is  the  constant  endeavor  of 
the  good  contractor  to  deliver  the  highest 
class  work  possible,  but  at  the  same  time 
he  must  watch  very  closely  his  overhead  and 
costs.  There  is  no  argument  as  to  the  fact 
that  Carney  Mortar  gives  the  best  possible 
results  in  brick  and  tile  construction;  nor  is 
there  any  argument,  in  the  minds  of  those 
who  have  used  it,  as  to  its  economy.  There- 
fore, we  are  safe  in  saying  that  when  you, 
as  an  architect,  or  contractor,  are  made 
familiar  with  the  good  qualities  of  Carney 
you  will  use  it  because  it  produces  the  best 
mortar  at  the  lowest  possible  cost. 

Investigate  Carney  before  you  begin 
planning  or  erecting  another  building.  Ask 
a Carney  dealer  in  your  town  to  tell  you 
the  location  of  a building  laid  up  in  Carney. 
Go  to  that  building  and  examine  it  closely. 
Call  on  the  architect  or  contractor  who 
planned  or  built  the  building  and  ask  him 
regarding  his  experiences  with  Carney. 
Find  out  first  hand  from  the  actual  user 
just  how  economical  Carney  is  and  what  a 
substantial  wall  it  builds.  Don’t  delay 
investigating  Carney,  because  we  know  it 
is  your  desire  to  produce  the  most  satis- 
factory work  and  to  cut  your  costs. 


After  having  seen  Carney  in  use  and 
after  having  talked  with  the  architect  and 
contractor  you  will  he  convinced  of  the  me- 
rits of  Carney  and  you  will  try  it  yourself. 

Carney  has  been  used  in  the  most  im- 
portant and  largest  brick  and  tile  structures 
in  the  United  States  under  the  most  trying 
conditions  of  weather  and  workmanship 
and  it  has  made  good.  If  your  dealer 
doesn’t  carry  Carney,  send  us  his  name 
and  address,  and  we  will  see  that  you  are 
promptly  supplied.  Carney  is  accessible  to 
all  architects,  contractors  and  builders  in 
America.  Perhaps  you  have  some  questions 
in  mind  you  would  like  to  ask  regarding 
Carney.  If  there  is  any  information  you 
desire  write  11s  a letter,  and  we  will  be  glad 
to  explain  any  points  and  advise  you  fully 
as  to  how  Carney  can  be  successfully  and 
economically  used  on  any  brick  or  tile 
construction  job. 

Our  experience  in  brick  and  tile  con- 
struction is  comprehensive  and  varied  be- 
cause we  have  had  to  meet  every  possible 
condition  that  could  possibly  arise  in  the 
building  of  brick  and  tile  buildings.  Noth- 
ing pleases  us  more  than  to  have  architects 
and  contractors  ask  11s  to  help  them  with 
their  building  problems. 

Specify  and  use  Carney  on  your  next  job 
and  we  assure  you,  you  will  become  another 
Carney  booster.
